Technique TuesdayDo you bear crawl?If not, why not? :)It's a great exercise!!Ref: www.bornfitness.com/wild-thang-workout-the-20-minute-fat-burning-circuit/Why you should be doing Bear Crawls - well Bear Crawls will condition your body in so many ways that it's a perfect exercise for any sport you are training for.Think how the exercise is done, you are on all fours and moving around using every muscle in your arms, shoulders, traps, neck, core, thighs, hamstrings, calves, wrists, hands, feet not to mention theanaerobic benefits.Around 20 yards of space and you have a workout that will let you know you have worked muscular strength, muscular endurance and body control.But, only if it is done correctly!!If you let the hips drift from side to side, you need to slow down, keep the pelvis level and still and control that movement. this will aid your core stability and great for scapula control. Eric Cressey gives a great cue to stop you from rolling side to side and that involves a small weight plate resting on your lumber spine. Move incorrectly and you can feel it sliding and then falling.Catch Eric's video to show best to use this great exercise.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUxSCv8ecmcC'mon get crawling now!! Be healthy, be strong!Alan
